I spoke with my contact at Trailair and from your serial number we were able to determine that your trailer came with a 1621 HD pin box which is a long pin box style. I was unable to obtain the exact part number for your Trailair pin box but from the…

You will have to go with a sliding hitch to allow the trailer to make tight turns. For a trailer 8 feet wide the only bed length that's going to allow 90 degree turns without a slider is a stationary hitch. That being said you have two options.…
Hey Garrett! Thanks for providing those measurements. It looks like your bolts are 7-1/2" apart horizontally and 2" in the front and back vertically. Based on that you have a Lippert Rhino. Since the GVWR of your 2022 Keystone Fuzion 430 is…

5th Wheel Gooseneck Adapters for more bed space
Swap your pin box to tow with a gooseneck ball and keep your truck bed clear when you're unhooked. Many setups make it easy to hook up and disconnect, and some offer an offset to help with short-bed clearance. Compare your bed-rail height and trailer overhang to confirm the room you need before you choose.
Yes, use a coupler lock that matches your latch style; for example, an eZ-Latch style takes a lock sized for that cast coupler. Safety chains are needed with a gooseneck pin box—plan chain mounts and length so they don't bind during turns. Verify your hitch and coupler are compatible with the chosen lock and chains.
Plan for added cab clearance needs. Swapping from a rotating pin box moves the pivot forward, so look for an adapter with built-in offset or use an offset gooseneck ball that matches your hitch. Use this to double-check: (A + B) - C = Clearance. A = distance from ball to cab, B = offset used, C = half the trailer nose width.
Measure bed rail to trailer overhang and aim for about 6" of clearance. Short-bed trucks benefit from a smaller footprint to keep space usable. Check that the adapter's height range lets you level the trailer while maintaining clearance, and confirm it won't interfere with toolboxes or flatbed wells.
It can, but it depends on the design. Some adapters tow smoothly with reduced back-and-forth movement and quiet operation. Basic, non-cushioned options focus on simplicity and bed space, not ride improvements. If you feel chucking, check torque specs, ball fit, and coupler height, and verify clearance and offset to help minimize binding.
